Edit your business listing on Google

Summary: Keep your business listing’s information up-to-date so customers can find you. Once you're signed in to your account, you can edit information like hours, special hours, and photos from the Info menu on your listing.

Edit your Google My Business listing to ensure that your business information on Google is accurate and up-to-date. Change your address, hours, contact info, and photos to help potential customers find you and learn more about your business.

If you delete information, some of the information that you previously added about your business may take up to 60 days to be deleted from our active servers, and may remain in our backup systems for an additional period of time.

Types of edits

Represent your business exactly as it appears in the offline world. Changing your business name between when you request a verification postcard and when you enter the verification code will reset the verification process. For more information, see the Google My Business quality guidelines.

Enter the one category that best represents your business. All locations of a business must share one Primary Category. Choose a category that is as specific as possible, but representative of your main business. If you enter several categories, the category entered in the first field will be selected as your primary category.

You may also choose up to nine more additional categories. If you can't find a category for your business, choose one that is more general.

Don't use categories solely as keywords or to describe attributes of your business.

Don't use categories that pertain to other businesses that are nearby or related, such as a business physically contained within your business or an entity that contains your business.

Add the hours that your business is open. These are your regular customer-facing hours of operation for a typical week. For days when you have unusual hours, like holidays or special events, set special hours. Learn more about hours guidelines

To set business hours:

Make sure that you've followed the steps above to select the location whose hours you want to set.

Choose a day of the week and slide the circle to the right to indicate your business is open on that day.

Click Opens at and select the opening time from the dropdown menu.

Click Closes at and select the closing time from the dropdown menu.

Once you’re done, click Apply.

Breaks in business hours

Create two entries for the same day with different times to indicate that your business hours include a break. For example, say your business is open from 9am–2pm on Saturdays, closed from 2pm–5pm, then open again from 5pm–10pm. To show this for your business, you’d enter the first open time by choosing Saturday, 9:00am, and 2:00pm. Then, you’d click Add hours, but this time enter 5:00pm and 10:00pm.

24-hour businesses

Indicate that you’re open 24 hours on a given day by clicking Opens at next to the day you want to set hours for, then selecting 24 hours from the dropdown menu that appears.

Special hours

To change your hours for holidays or other temporary periods, set special hours.

Attributes include offerings like "Has Wi-Fi" and "Offers outdoor seating," which tell customers more about your business. Certain factual attributes (like outdoor seating) are directly editable by you, while subjective attributes (like whether your business is popular with locals) rely on the opinions of Google users who’ve visited your business.

Add relevant and accurate attributes to your business listing to help people find you on Google. Get started with attributes by clicking the field beside the attributes icon .

Note: If you own or manage a doctor listing, you can edit your gender information in the Attributes section . If you want to remove your gender information, use this form to contact us.

Enter a brief description of your business—what you offer, what sets you apart, your history, or anything else that's helpful for customers to know. Focus primarily on details about your business instead of details about promotions, prices, or sales. Do not include URLs or HTML code, or exceed 750 characters in the description field. For the full list of guidelines, read Business description guidelines.
